Read, Edit and Save Word Document over http:// path
I've seen lots of posts around this subject but nothing recent or very helpful. I've an ASP.Net c# application that needs to read Word documents from a directory on the web server, open them in Word from the client browser, edit the content and then update the document on the server. I can almost do it by pasting the url into the "Save As" location but I get a "read only" message when I try to save. I'm happy to code httpRequest objects or Word automation,if necessary, but I need to resulting procedure to be intuitive for the user. Has anyone got this working? Cheers John South Pangbourne UK www.WhereCanWeGo.com

Yes, I do have write permissions to the files both in IIS and Windows.

The Word
document opened from the http:// url is still read-only when I try to save it back. Is there anything else I should look at Slim?
